Hsiiread Tickets.

The Pueblo Chieftain gives utterance
TO dictate OF common sense, which has
for long time impressed itself upon the
most casual observer. 1t says:
Tbare is no sense in compelling a pas

sage to certain place, 1t is none OF the
railroad eompany's business whether he
goes at all o. not, and the company has
no right to exact an agreement froa him
that hs must 90 within any given length
of time. The ticket bought and paid for
should be good until used by the pur.
chaser or some one else, and a law should
DO enacted compelling railroads to OBJ.
serve the principles ef Justice. Chief
Justice Field, Of tho United States So;
preme Court, seems - take this view ol
the case. Recently the Judge had occa.
sion TO go across the continent, and was
given the usual ticket to Portland, Ore
gon, after the payment Of tho requisite
amount of money, and was asked to sign
il. He refused, but he rode on the ticket
and the conductor made no effort to
bounce him. In fact the case will be
considered as settled without litigation.
II may be added, says the Las Vegas
Optic, t6at the attempt to prevent man
from selling the unused remnant of a
ticket is equally contrary to every dictate
OF justice or common sense. II q rail-
road company agrees, fora stated COM
pensation which they receive, to convey
a passenger from any point to any other
designated point, what difference does it
make in law or justice whether the dis
tance be Travelled by one person or by q
dozen consecutive persons4 II ia but one
passage after all, and the new interstate
law in preventing discrimination against
any points, must do away with the effort
to prevent traveller from selling the un.
consumed part Of his ticket.

Jubilant over his apology 10 paddy" Barrett IL
now appears the retraction was only sent TO the
Times after he had received a lawyers letter or
rather lawyers telegram from the Mansion
House, Dublin The piquancy OF the whole thing
Is this: Balfour, while making an unfounded
charge, abused Gladstone for saying he would
only apologize for ISLANDERS after receiving
lawyers letter. He referred TO Colonel Doping
the agent OF Capt. Hill, or Gweedore, who Glad
stone said, pointed a loaded gun at boy at Evic-
lions on HIS estates. Doping retorted that the
gun was unioaded Gladstone said he did not
mean 10 say loaded. GladsUonels Informant was
Prol stuart, who merely stated that he had heard
IL from somebody present. Whether the gun was
loaded or unloaded was inmaterial. Admittedly
the gun was pointed at the lad 10 teir1fy him
topping Is well known as one OF the harsheSt
agents In Ireland, and has earned an everlasting
hatred as the agent or Lord Letrim, perhaps the
worst landlord who ever cursed Ire land, and who
was murdered few years ago Balfour after say-
Ing this about Gladstone, alleged that the farmer
Patrick Barrett was properly arrested and con-
vlcted. IL appears the charge against Barrett
was dismissed without the defense even being
called Tor. The friends OF BalIour urged that his
apology was made spontaneously In chivalrous
feeling, but this Is now disproved beyond Ques-
tlon.
